Reviews

Keeping up to date with the law is always difficult for transport professionals - there is a tendency to recall things as they were when we learned it and not as they are now. The authors are to be congratulated on providing us with a comprehensive volume of today's requirements in an easy-to-read style and I for one will keep my copy close at hand.Leon Daniels, Managing Director Surface Transport, Transport for London

I wholeheartedly recommended this guide to transport operator licensing. The complexities of O licensing are broken down into bite sized chunks and would suit both the novice and the experienced operator looking for a single source for study and/or reference. In my view it should be in the desk drawer of every Transport Manager.Martyn Young, Managing Director, Ketra Logistics Ltd

This compendium of compliance issues is of great benefit to those wishing to comply with as much as possible of the legislative framework surrounding Transport Operator Licensing. It concisely explains the legalities in a comprehensive and logical way. I have no hesitation in recommending this volume.Alec Horner, Managing Director, Minimise Your Risk
